Tips for Rifle Shooting

An article entitled "8 Uncommon Rifle Shooting Tips for Beginners" at the Firearms Blog. Tip #7--shoot with both eyes open--is more nuanced than just a general rule. I've seen people that are right-handed, but left-eye dominant, contorting themselves around a rifle in order to hold it with their right hand, but aim with their left eye. I think it is easier for those people to simply close their left eye and force themselves to use their right eye. Gabe Suarez also notes that the one or two eye question depends on the situation--up close, you want both eyes open, but using a scope or for long distance shooting, it may be better to close one eye.

Anyway, good tips. Read the whole article.
